Help me out on a call. A sister placed magazines with a college kid, conversed a while, and he said she could call back. His father, however, would not likely be welcoming, he said. She gave the call to me. I made it. He was not home. His father was, and the son had been right. The father was not welcoming. Neither did he tell me to get lost. Well – he did, but it was not in the ordering sort of tone, and I said I had not been looking for him anyway, but his son. He was the family head, and I told him I would not try to sneak around him, but did he mind if I called again on his son? The kid was smart, I told the old man, and that must mean his parents are smart.…

Another sample of the Russian government's absolute corruption The police have discovered a big scam at the trauma research institute, whose director mikhail sadovaya has been charged with embezzlement and has been arrested. Serious patients, such as cancer, have not received medical assistance since they were diverted. The Russian government has just announced that these stolen funds have gone to the cult of Jehovah's witnesses. Funds from the federal medical facility budget were spent on the needs of the religious organization, according to the authorities. "the European Association of Jehovah's witnesses" was surprised, from the reading of publications b…

Low Self - Esteem? Many Things Can Erode This in Life! ??? “God is for us a refuge and strength, a help that is readily to be found during distresses.” (PSALM 46:1) The eight points are as follows: (1) Do not panic; (2) think positively; (3) open your mind to new types of work; (4) live within your means—not someone elseÂ’s; (5) be careful with credit; (6) keep the family united; (7) keep your self-esteem; and (8) set up a budget.  Yearning for a Slimmer Body??

Watchtower's viewpoint on charities: "Like the neighborly Samaritan in JesusÂ’ illustration, we want to help suffering people, including those who are not Witnesses. (Luke 10:33-37) The best way to do so is by sharing the good news with them. “It is important to make clear right away that we are JehovahÂ’s Witnesses and that our primary mission is to help them spiritually, not materially,” notes an elder who has helped many refugees. “Otherwise, some may associate with us only for personal advantage." Wt 2017/5 p. 7 "If there is any material giving, to charities for instance, it is because there is need to salve a conscience, or because one's reputation i…

Jehovah's Witnesses are often mistaken to be something else. Some say it a secret cult while others believe something else.......i'm very proud to tell you my readers that I'm one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Below are 17 facts that shows Jehovah's Witness is not a cult.... 1. There are currently about 8 457 107 million Jehovah's witnesses around the world. 2. An average of over 780 people become Jehovah's witnesses daily. 3. We keep coming to your doors even though we have regular jobs and family like you because we are admonished to do so by Jesus Christ. 4. We do not participate in wars and for this reason more than 1600 Jehovah's witnesses were killed by Hitler. …

I have sinned against Jehovah.—2 Sam. 12:13. David accepted correction from JehovahÂ’s representative, the prophet Nathan. David also prayed to Jehovah, confessing his sins and expressing a sincere desire to be restored to JehovahÂ’s favor. (Ps. 51:1-17) Instead of being paralyzed by guilt, David learned from his mistakes. Indeed, he never repeated those serious sins. Years later, he died faithful, his record of integrity firmly sealed in JehovahÂ’s memory. (Heb. 11:32-34) What can we learn from DavidÂ’s example? If we fall into serious sin, we need to repent sincerely and seek JehovahÂ’s forgiveness. We must confess our sins to him. (1 John 1:9) We also need to appr…

Happy is the one whose transgression is pardoned.—Ps. 32:1. Some anxiety may be caused by a personÂ’s past actions or failings. At times, King David felt that his ‘errors loomed over his head.Â’ He admitted: “My anguished heart makes me groan aloud.” (Ps. 38:3, 4, 8, 18) In that situation, what was the wise thing for David to do? What did he do? He trusted in JehovahÂ’s mercy and forgiveness. (Ps. 32:2, 3, 5) At other times, you may become anxious about the present. For instance, when David wrote Psalm 55, he feared for his life. (Ps. 55:2-5) Nevertheless, he did not allow anxiety to destroy his confidence in Jehovah. David made his problems a subject of fervent p…

Those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the spirit, on the things of the spirit.—Rom. 8:5. Some might imagine that this is a contrast between those who are not in the truth and those who are, between those who are not Christians and those who are. However, Paul was writing to “those who are in Rome as GodÂ’s beloved ones, called to be holy ones.” (Rom. 1:7) Thus, Paul was contrasting Christians who walked according to the flesh with Christians who walked according to the spirit. He linked “living according to the flesh” with “the sinful passions” that were then “at work in [their] bodies…

What Is the Key ? to Success? Success in most endeavors depends largely on patient perseverance. Whether it is mastering a new language, learning a trade, or even developing a relationship, most things of value are achieved only through sustained effort. “Nine times out of ten,” says author Charles Templeton, “success is directly attributable to one thing: hard work.” Columnist Leonard Pitts, Jr., notes: “We talk about talent, we nod to luck, but so often, we ignore the most important things. The hard work and many failures. The arriving early and staying late.” This confirms what the Bible long ago stated: “The hand of the diligent one is the…

Someone posted a question about the longevity of Watchtower given the events of the past few years. The following is just my opinion, and my observations from the past year: Two years ago, Watchtower implemented a 5-year cost reduction program in which they asked all branches to cut costs by a minimum of 10%, up to 25% as a preferred number. In the spring of 2015, Stephen Lett asked for donations after stating that WT had more money going out than coming in. 6 months later in a private seminar which I have watched, Watchtower officials announced that Lett's plea resulted in 30 million extra dollars in donations, but this would not stem their financial issues and…

A former public elementary school teacher who is a Jehovah’s Witness has filed a lawsuit against the suburban Detroit school district where she used to work because, she claims, school officials ordered her to organize a classroom Valentine’s Day party and then sacked her because she refused. People who belong to the Jehovah’s Witnesses, a millenarian Christian sect, do not celebrate Valentine’s Day. Thus, the teacher, Yvonne Lemmons, is suing for religious discrimination reports Michigan Live. The defendant in the lawsuit is the Southfield Public School District in Southfield, Mich. Lemmons, 56, says in her lawsuit that she had been a fourth-grade teacher …
